Hi all, I have a cocoa/mono application and using monobjc as the bridge.
There is currently a problem with using .Net Remoting code with monobjc since Mono has a bug (https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=MONO74621) preventing reflection on dynamic modules. This causes an exception when trying to use remoting, since remoting generates a dynamic module for its work, and monobjc hooks to the AppDomain.AssemblyLoad event and scans the loaded dynamic assembly, resulting in an exception (see stacktrace at bottom as reference). In short - I need a workaround - a way to tell monobjc that a certain assembly should not be scanned (i.e. - not call Monobjc.ObjectiveCRuntime.ScanAssembly in certain scenarios), or change the behavior to proactively tell it which assemblies I _DO_ want to scan instead of all of them, since I know where my bridge classes are declared.
